Ouch, IO::AIO is Lehmannware and doesn't seem to do well on MSWin.
What about PLS instead? It doesn't have any tester results for MSWin, which is suspicious...

Yeah, I was never able to get Perl::LanguageServer to work on 64bit Strawberry, either (though it looks like you tried harder than I did).
PerlNavigator works with my Strawberry v5.38.0 for MSWin32-x64-multi-thread. Its homepage gives examples of how to set it up for VS Code, Sublime, emacs, neovim, and others... And it is starting to work with an alpha NppLspClient plugin on Notepad++, using the config below:
[lspservers.perl]
mode = "io"
executable = 'c:\\usr\\local\\bin\\perlnavigator.exe'
args = '--stdio'
auto_start_server = true
The upsides are that PerlNavigator uses the Microsoft LSP library, so is known to work well on Windows; and it doesn't have difficulties installing module prerequisites, because it's a standalone app, not a Perl-based application or module(s). The downside is, it's not a Perl-based application or module(s) ;-).
update: sorry, I hadn't seen haj's post yet when I replied to this one. but mine does include tangential information which might be of use to non-VSCode users wanting similar functionality on other Windows editors. | [reply]

I did manage to get Perl::LanguageServer installed (in WSL2/Ubuntu), ad VS Code confirms it is installed. This is what is confusing. Plus I don't get any errors when I hit run and debug it exits without running or debugging the code. | [reply] |
It's whatever comes stock with Ubuntu. Strawberry I guess? | [reply] |
If you're on an actual Ubuntu desktop, then "perl -v" gives the answer you're looking for. Strawberry is a distribution of perl for Windows, which is what I think most people assumed when you said VSCode.
(this conversation will likely now chain into "don't use the system perl for development, use perlbrew" or something like that. I'd recommend just using system perl until you have everything working, then consider installing your own with perlbrew)
